PX reflects Bowers & Wilkins uncompromising approach to acoustic performance, with every element of the headphones’ design focused on optimising sound quality.
The PX’s drive units are derived from the company’s reference quality P9 Signature headphones and feature the same angled design for a more convincing soundstage. The active noise cancelling function has been refined to provide optimum isolation without ‘crushing’ the music – a process that took thousands of hours of development and testing. The headphones also use the latest aptX HD Bluetooth technology for 24-bit audio resolution to get the best possible sound from all sources.
Apart from its unrivalled performance, perhaps the most remarkable aspect of PX is the User Experience. PX is Bowers & Wilkins’ first smart headphone, with sensors that allow listeners to control music in a way that feels completely intuitive.
PX works by responding intelligently to natural user behaviour. Pick them up and the headphones will switch on immediately and automatically resume playing your music. Put them down and they return to stand-by mode. Lift an ear cup to talk, or hang them around your neck, and PX will pause the music, resuming playback when you’re ready to listen. The class-leading battery provides 22 hours of playback in wireless noise cancellation mode, or 33 hours in wired noise cancellation mode.
